Yes, it was he. Don't know where I got the Chuck part from but I got the D. correct! (1 out of 26 ain't so bad!) Thanks, Priscilla, my memory isn't all that great anymore either. ('course it was never all that good to start with.) Garry really was one of THE GOOD GUYS. Wierwille was an opportunist. To use this tragedy to further his own agenda speaks volumes about his motivation. IMO.

The Neville Brothers do that also. They are a must see if they come to your area. -------------------------------------------------------- OK, Socks! Spill the beans. What kinda axe? 4 string? 6 string? Round wound? flat wound? Finger rocker? Picker? Special FX? yada, yada, yada. Enquiring minds want to know!

I have seen those commercials also. I have also heard that chiropractors have a similar process that involves immersing the feet in a solution while a mild electrical charge is applied to the solution. I just don't understand how it can be explained in a way that fits with what is known about human physiology and how the body cleanses itself. Not sayin' there's nothing to it or that it doesn't work. Just sayin' that if it does work, there should be some sort of tangible scientific explanation. I mean, if this actually works, why would anyone need chelation therapy to remove lead from their system? I need more concrete evidence, not testimonials. But maybe that's just me.

Hiya, Nero Have you ever had a garden? First you plant a seed and before you know it, there's a sprout in its place. Soon the sprout is replaced with a seedling which is replaced with a plant and so on and so on. At the end of the season, the plant you see looks nothing like the seed you planted at the start of the season. But, of course, it is. It's merely changed its appearance and structure. Hey, now! I'm no botany major but I think you get the gist of it. So, we are a bit like plants, much different at the end of the season than we were at the start. Still, we are, in essence, the same plant that started as a seed. Here is the scripture from which Watered Garden has drawn the inspiration for her "handle": Isaiah 58:11 And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

It was a long time ago, but I believe the person that died was a guy named Chuck D. He ran classes in the Dayton area before going in the corps. I hope that is accurate. (It was about 1974 or so.) If it is not, feel free to smack me upside the head, between the eyes.

And you believed him????? HaHaHaHa!!

Yes, of course, that's it. They're looking for your address, Mike, so they can contact you personally. That way you can expound to them on a "one-on one" level from the "God-Breathed Word" of POOFLE. (Each one win one) Or, like you say, they could be "googlebots". It's hard to even imagine how many people click onto google in search of "The God Breathed Word of Poofle".

TG Thanks for that reference to Chas. F. Parham. I really didn't know anything about him until you mentioned his name. I googled it and read the information about his involvement with SIT and baptism in the spirit. Thanks

I can only speak for myself, but I read lots of things I don't respond to. It doesn't mean that I don't welcome them or that I am disinterested. Sometimes I'm not at a computer I can log on to. (OK, make that lots of times.) Other times I simply don't have anything to add in response. I'm sure I do more reading than posting but that's just me. It's not a reflection on the post or the poster.

TG I admire the courage you displayed by breaking out of the "think like us" mold that TWI put us in. There are many people who, even decades later. can not accept the fact that we were tricked. Now, you and I may not necessarily reach the same conclusions regarding various doctrines. But, what's important, at least in my opinion, is that we arrive at them by our independent thinking, not because some cult insists we must all be uniform. I'm looking forward to more of your insight.

This is kind of embarrassing. I've looked all through my Advanced Class Syllabus and can't seem to find out what spirit it is that will possess you if you look at the internet. Anybody know?

Did God tell him to build a motorcoach out of gopher wood? I'm just askin'-----------

Sir G. That is, indeed, an interesting take on the "Big 9". It definately give new meaning to "all 9 all the time". Side note: Mike's comment to my post was merely in jest. It is part of an old routine that Firesign Theater did many years ago. It takes place at a student assembly at More Science High. Principal Poop begins by addressing the students. "My fellow kids", says he. From the audience comes the shout of "What is reality?"(the line that I gave.) Someone else shouts "Eat it!"(The line that mike gave.) Then someone shouts "Eat it raw!!" Principal Poop, being somewhat taken back, takes a diversional approach and responds by saying, "Uhmmmmmmm! Yes, Rah, Rah--- That's the school spirit." Sorry for the derail. I felt that needed an explanation.

What is reality?

Does this class promote the "sacrifice of virgins"? (ie: tossing them down the volcano.) That seems to be the only thing missing.

I remember going through my son's trick or treat bag once and finding a Bible tract. How weird is that? "Thy words were found and I did eat them---- along with the jelly beans and red-hots." edit: Hope your son is feeling better Geo.

Internet??? Heck, we didn't even have phones or TV's in FLO. ps. I'd chat with you excie but I still can't get this old junker to do that. (Though I really do appreciate the suggestions and advise folks have given me.)

Gosh!!! My history book said it was an "H-Bomb". Ahhhhh!---Whatta they know?

Gosh!!! That's a good point, Mike. Maybe Scooby Doo was John The Baptist! I mean, who really knows for sure?

"The 12 went out WOW". HaHaHaHaHaHa! That's a good one, Mike. I hadn't heard it in over 20 or 30 years but it still gives me a chuckle. Do you think they had "green cards"?

Funny, ya know----- I was just thinking this same thing today as I was roasting uranium over a campfire built inside a giant microwave oven. BTW Speaking of the atom bomb-----------Paul Tibbetts died today. Of course, that was actually the H-Bomb but the connection seemed obvious.
